What a wonderful day it is!!!! 

Guess what I am feeling?   Restriction!!!!   Yeah!!!

Yesterday Gino went to the market to buy some stuff for today's soft proteins.  All we kept thinking was is tomorrow here yet?  We just want to EAT!  LOL  We had a good day yesterday, we were not hungry for the most part. Not like day 1 for sure. 

So today we get up thinking about the wonderful omelet we were going to have for breakfast.  I must say I was pleasantly surprised. I was not feeling hungry.  So we ate our breakfast less than 4 ounces and we were full.  We felt that full feeling in our chest like when we were first post op. 

Gino lost another pound and I lost another 1/2 pound.

I just finished eating 4 oz of Salmon with onions and I am super full.  I had to take a deep breath cause it has been forever since I really felt that full feeling.

So day 3 is awesome and I can't wait to see what tomorrow brings.

I did another 1/2 hour Wii dancing with my daughter. later this afternoon I am going to take a walk.   So at least I am getting some exercing in.

Thanks for reading my updates. I truly hope that this helps anyone who needs to go back to basics.

Have a great day on purpose.

Great Cira!!! I started after I read your post yesterday. I had a protein shake for breakfast so I figure I should just go for it. I was surprised that I wasnt ready to chew my arm off. So, today is day 2 for me and I am not hungry and I feel more energy. I do crave coffee.... . Hopefully that will be better today. I weighted myself this morning and I am down 3 pounds..... Thank you for inspiring me Cira.

Oh my goodness girl I am so proud of you for trying it right away.  Make sure to drink some coffee do not stop it cold turkey if you drink coffee everyday.  You can have coffee it tells you there on the site.
Congrats on the 3 pounds! Yippeeee send me a daily update on your progress and how you feel.

Woooo hooooooo! I am so glad that a few has been inspired to go back to basics! 

Do you feel restriction today?  By the way try the Tilapia recipe that they have there on the link I gave you for day three. I made it yesterday and I loved it.

Cira...thank you for inspiring me to get on track. Im proud of you as well.....we all need a reminder like this. This is our tool...not a cure all. I feel restriction like after surgery.....I LOVE IT!!!! Our tool works when we work it. I also feel much more energy and happiness. I was feeling discouraged and depressed before. I wanted to lose 10 more pounds and was feeling extremely run and had no motivation.....you and this pouch test has kick in gear and made me relize that "I CAN DO THIS" I CAN WORK MY TOOL..........THANK CIRA!!!!!!!!!!!!
